About Me

Hello there! I'm Mitchell. When I was younger, I hated brushing my teeth. Unfortunately, this carried over into my teenage years, leaving even my permanent adult teeth with horrible stains. My teeth were so bad; I hated smiling and talking to people I didn't know, because I was afraid they would judge me by my unseemly mouth. For a while, I tried using over-the-counter whitening strips that you can just buy in the grocery store. But those didn't work. Finally, I was fed up! I wanted to change my smile for the better. I talked to my dentist about professional whitening and cosmetic dentistry available at his office. Now I have a beautiful new smile, a better relationship with myself and my dentist, and lots of new knowledge about dentistry! I'm sharing it with you, so that hopefully you can find something worthwhile to improve your life and smile.
